Mike Berger

Mike Berger was born and raised in New York, about 20 minutes from Manhattan. He earned a degree in Sociology with a focus on human motivation, currently calls St. Louis home, is married and owns a plastic recycling company and video production company. Mike enjoyed visiting the Manhattan to watch the building of the World Trade Center complex. On Sept.11th, he had family who lived and worked in lower Manhattan. His cousin actually saw the first plane fly over his head while walking his dog in lower Manhattan. More than 14 months passed before Mike began to question the official story. After reading about significant purchases of put options on American and United airlines as well as several companies that occupied large portions of the WTC Towers, implying that identifiable parties may have profited from foreknowledge of the attacks, denial transformed into curiosity. He began researching the critical issues surrounding the failure of government officials to perform their sworn duties and defend us from attack. After all, according to George Tenet, "the system was blinking red." What went wrong? Why were we so unprepared for the attacks in light of numerous, documented, specific warnings? Why have we not held a single person accountable at any level, considering the magnitude of these failures?

More than 2 years of investigation resulted in a series of documentaries currently in production. The first, Improbable Collapse, examines how 3 steel framed buildings collapsed on 9/11 although no steel framed building had ever collapsed from fire. Ever.

"Never turn your back on a threatened danger and try to run
away from it. If you do that, you will double the danger.
But if you meet it promptly and without flinching, you will
reduce the danger by half. Never run away from anything. Never!"
-Winston Churchill

Brian Bogart

After the events of September
11, 2001 , Brian Bogart (founder of the 2005-2006 CampUS
Strike for Peace Campaign and the progressive think
tank IntelligentFuture) brought to a crescendo
his lifelong quest for peace and justice by designing a flexible
but intensive transdisciplinary masters degree program in
Peace Studies. In so doing, he avoided Pentagon funding (United
States Institute of Peaceboard members include several neoconservatives
and Department of Defense officials), and has become a leading
expert on the history of conflict as America 's economic engine.

Brian's work focuses on the disastrous policies of The Truman
administration, its manufacture and escalation of the Cold
War for the benefit of the industrialists of war, and the
subsequent maintenance of this arrangement through the end
of the Cold War to this moment -- a condition that perpetuates
conflict to sell weaponry (America's top industry since 1950),
and from which the world continues to suffer immensely.

Brian is currently compiling a book of
declassified records chronicling the manufacture of the Cold
War and war on terror, and the rise of the dispersed vendor
phenomenon: the dispersal of each weapons program to all 50
states, which economically motivates state leaders to continuously
approve such programs.

"Those of us who were outraged by
our involvement in Vietnam should be outraged that the Vietnam
War never ended. In Iraq and elsewhere, we are not repeating
Vietnam ; driven by industrial purchase orders, we are continuing
a single conquest for profit with the same justification --
a threat made larger than the truth. If we do not advance
our Founding vision for peace, we will perish by advancing
our technology for war."

a more subtle fight against economic and educational inequity.

Ian R. Crane

Chair
– 911 Truth Campaign ( UK & Ireland )

"……… history
cannot be permanently falsified; the myth cannot stand up
to the scrutiny of research; the sinister web will be brought
into the light and torn to pieces, however artfully it has
been spun."

~Dr. Jakob Ruchti - 1915.

In Chicago, Ian will present his research
into the Madrid Bombings (3/11/04 – exactly 911 days after
9/11 ) and the London Bombings on 7th July of last year
(7/7). Research which indicates that the scriptwriters
of 9/11 contributed to the planning for 3/11 & 7/7...

…and he doesn't mean
Osama Bin Laden or Al Qaeda!

Prior to his retirement from the corporate arena, Ian enjoyed
a career of 25 years in telecommunications and international
oilfield services, a career that provided the opportunity
to live and work in the U.K., Continental Europe, the Middle
East and Houston, Tx.

An ex-oilfield executive, Ian now lectures
and writes on the geopolitical webs that have been spun since
the events of 9/11, with particular focus on US hegemony and
the US agenda for control of global oil & gas resources.

Gabriel has been active in
the peace, social justice and environmental movements since
1979, starting the Peace Resource Project in 1982 (www.peaceproject.com)
and www.911sharethetruth.com.
He has also been an entrepreneur in the computer and wireless
industries before being able to solely focus on his political
activism recently. Enthusiastically involved in the 9/11 truth
movement for over three years, Gabriel has been traveling
extensively within America meeting and collaborating with
9/11 truth activists.

His areas of interests are building successful
strategies, grassroots activism, media creation/distribution
and articulating a positive vision of a post-9/11 truth world.
He currently is serving as a steering committee member of
911truth.org as their national outreach and networking coordinator.

Chris Emery

Owner / Executive
producer with OTR Films, LLC of Oklahoma City, Chris has worked
in the media industry for nearly 25 years. Starting as a freelance
sports photographer with NCAA football and the NFL, he acquired
a hands on understanding of boilerplate network news, well
researched news and how the two rarely mesh together.

In January of 2000 a media colleague convinced Chris to study
the facts of the Oklahoma City bombing that corporate media
and the DOJ chose to suppress. Nearly six years later Chris
has no regrets about his decision to relocate from Dallas/Fort
Worth to Oklahoma City to work on his latest project -- a
documentary film about the OKC bombing.

"In almost identical terms with the events of 9/11, the people
of Oklahoma City have been lied to, ignored and patronized
for the past eleven years by several top supervisors within
the FBI, the DOJ and the Oklahoma - US Congressional delegation
who turned tail and ran away from the facts of the OKC bombing
as fast as possible.

The investigation of this case was nothing more than a half
baked farce and an insult towards the victims family members,
survivors, law enforcement and the OKC federal grand jury
who wanted all the perpetrators captured and prosecuted. In
the end, why should we be asked to remember the deaths of
our loved ones in a lie?"

Chris volunteers his time with the Oklahoma Bombing Investigation
Committee [OKBIC] - www.okcbombing.org
and several other top rate investigative journalists including
Mr. Pat Shannan - www.patshannan.com.
Mr. Emery will present irrefutable evidence showing the Oklahoma
City Bombing was a trial run for the 9/11 tragedy.

Sander Hicks

Sander Hicks
is an independent publisher, community organizer, and writer.
He founded Soft Skull Press in 1992, and won awards for his
work there. He gained serious national attention when he stood
up to the Bush machine in 1999 by republishing the controversial
Bush bio, Fortunate Son. He
was featured alongside the book's author, Jim Hatfield, in
the Cinemax/HBO documentary "Horns and Halos." He ran Soft
Skull until a leave of absence in 2001.

After a year-long "recharge" time, he returned
to New York City to start Vox Pop/DKMC, New York City's only
community-empowering bookstore, cafe, and media machine. At
home in Brooklyn, Vox Pop serves delicious fair-trade certified
coffee, with workers organized by Local 660, Retail Workers'
Union, IWW. As a publisher, Vox Pop publishes the kind of
investigative non-fiction that is much in demand these days.
Half the time, the first print run of a Vox Pop book will
sell out within four weeks.

Sander Hicks is a playwright, a musician, and a reporter.
He grew up in the Washington, DC suburbs, where his teenage
hero was Ian MacKaye, of the band Fugazi. The son of a World
Bank economist, Hicks understands the core mission of international
development, but remains staunchly critical of the gross shortcomings
of corporate globalization. He has marched against the World
Bank/IMF, despite the unfortunate and painful family friction
this has caused. He graduated from Eugene Lang College, New
School University, in 1993. His political art-punk band, White
Collar Crime, played Warped Tour, in 2001.

As a journalist, Hicks broke new ground
on the 9/11 attack for New York Press, Long Island Press,
GNN.tv, and "INN World Report" television. He confronts a
neo-con and Democrat cover-up regarding 9/11 in his book,
The Big Wedding, which has 10,000 copies in print. His next
book, Meet the Future Head-On: Rediscovering America's Progressive
Mainstream (Vox Pop, Fall '06) will explore "the progressive
spirit at the core of the beliefs of a majority of Americans."
This character is ignored by the "politics of death" practiced
by the outdated "dinosaur" political parties.

Hicks takes great joy in his faith, as
a progressive, practicing Catholic Christian, in the direct-action
tradition of Fr. Dan Berrigan, S.J. Fr. John Dear, S.J.,,
and the venerable Dorothy Day. He lives in Brooklyn with his
wife, Holley and their son, Coleman. (More cool family pix
here.) Sander Hicks is a proud member of the Green Party,
which currently holds 10 elected offices in New York State.

Les, a resident of Brooklyn, NY, has been
extremely active in the 9/11 truth movement in NYC as well
as nationally. He has spent nearly every Saturday afternoon
since Jan. 2004 at Ground Zero, handing out literature and
informing people from all over the world about the real agenda
behind 9/11. Les has attended several 9/11 Commission hearings,
including hearings by the NIST investigation into why the
buildings collapsed, which has given him an up close realization
of the depth and scope of the official cover-up. He has written
many articles on 9/11 and created a slide show that consolidates
all the information down to 5 major points. He has been heavily
involved in planning several large 9/11 events in NYC as well
as an ongoing film series at St. Marks Church on Sundays in
the east village. Les has also contributed a lot of energy
and ideas to national projects planning including the Emergency
Truth Convergence in Washington, DC, July 22-24, 2005. Currently
he manages a campaign called Citizens Counter-Coup, which
is a monthly action plan to speak truth to power, exposing
the true crimes of that day which so drastically changed our
political reality.

Alex Jones

As featured
in such publications as The Wall Street Journal,
USA Today , The Dallas
Morning News, The Los Angeles Times,
The Austin-American Statesman, and The
Austin Chronicle, Alex Jones has created a powerful
platform in an attempt to re-create a Bill of Rights, freedom-orientated
culture in the face of an ever more federalized and security-obsessed
America.

Alex Jones broadcasts nationwide on the
Genesis Communications Radio Network.

Jones predicted the 9/11 attack in a July 2001 television
taping when he warned that the Globalists were going to attack
New York and blame it on their asset Osama bin Laden. View
the clip

Since 9/11 Jones has broken
many of the stories which later became the foundation of the
evidence that the government was involved.

After helping BBC
journalist Greg Palast break major stories Palast
publicly thanked
Alex for being the only radio host to pay attention to
W199I, a leaked document concerning FBI protection of groups
linked to Al-Qaeda.

Steven E. Jones
is a Professor of Physics at 30,000-student Brigham
Young University in Provo , Utah. His Ph.D
research was performed at the Stanford Linear Accelerator
Center in California and his Ph.D is from Vanderbilit University
. During his 28-year career as a physicist, his
research has centered on fusion and solar energy as well as
archaeometry (the application of physics methods to archaeology).
He has taught graduate-level archaeometry at BYU, and
he says this work in particular prepared him for studies of
evidences of possible foul-play at the World Trade Center
on 9/11/2001 .

“In archaeometry, we use advanced physics methods to
determine what happened in the past from available evidence.
That is just what I'm pursuing in 9-11 research. When
I saw the WTC 7 collapse videos, I immediately suspected something
was amiss with the official explanation… but I did not see
this video until the springtime of 2005. From that day
to this I have vigorously studied data regarding the 9/11
collapses and lack of air defenses and other anomalies.”

Faiz Khan is
a Muslim scholar and educator as well as an M.D. with a dual

Loose Change Producers

Dylan Avery
is a 22 year old originally from New York State. While researching
a piece he was writing he stumbled upon the deceptions and
cover-ups surrounding the events of September 11th and Loose
Change Second Edition is the result. His passion
for film and his ability to blend sound, music and digital
imagery seamlessly into an eighty-minute tour-de-force has
had an undeniable effect on millions of viewers and has spawned
a nascent activist movement around the globe.

Jason Bermas was a full-time
graphic designer when he learned about the truth behind 911.
Not long after being introduced to filmmakers Dylan Avery
and Korey Rowe, he began to devote his life and talents to
helping them spread the word through the website.

Korey Rowe, at 22, is
a combat veteran of both the Afghanistan and Iraq campaigns
in the so-called War On Terror. Returning to civilian life,
Korey discovered the hidden story behind the impetus to war
and the disturbing truths about what really happened on September
11th, 2001. He has since then devoted all of his energies
into helping his childhood friend Dylan Avery promote and
distribute Loose Change Second Edition and is currently working
on a follow up project.

Joyce's paradigm for social change: Information,
Intuition, Imagination, synthesized from her experience, research,
and inner guidance. She was a political reporter in Washington,
D.C. for eight years. Shortly after moving to the San Francisco
Bay Area, she remembered her first dream, which gave the ending
for a screenplay she was writing. Later, her dreams and those
of others imparted insights into the stolen 2000 presidential
election and then tips that 9/11 was an inside job. As a result,
dreams have guided her reporting about health, self-expression,
and politics. She gave presentations on the 9/11 Cover-up
Commission at the San Francisco and Toronto Citizen's
Inquiries. Joyce offers tutorials and classes on using dream
wisdom for social change.

Annie Machon, along with her partner David
Shayler (below), spent over 5 years working as intelligence
officers for MI5, the UK security service. During their years
at the heart of Britain's secret state, they saw an alarming
catalogue of mistakes, cover-ups and crimes, which led to
the deaths of innocent people.

In particular, David had personal experience
of a major false-flag terrorist operation. His counterparts
in MI6 officially briefed him on a plot to assassinate Colonel
Gaddafi of Libya. This consisted of MI6 officers paying associates
of Bin Laden over $100,000 in an illegal operation which was
not sanctioned by the British government. The attack went
wrong and innocent people died.

In the wake of this operation David and
Annie left MI5 and blew the whistle. As a result they have
spent 3 years on the run and in hiding in Europe, seen friends,
family, and journalists arrested and persecuted, and David
has been to prison, not once, but twice. Further intelligence
has since emerged that proves the Gaddafi plot went ahead
as they described, but the British government continues to
refuse to hold an inquiry. They see the Gaddafi plot as one
of a sequence of false-flag terrorist operations designed
to give the UK and USA the pretext to attack oil-rich Middle
Eastern countries. Annie will be addressing the conference
on this and other examples of the crimes of the intelligence
services.

Janette MacKinlay
watched the events of 9/11 unfold out the window of her apt.
located directly across the street from the World Trade Center
complex. She and her partner remained inside their apartment
and survived the blast which burst their windows and flooded
their apt. with dust and debris upon the collapse of Tower
Two.

After staying in a hotel for five weeks,
while attempting to recover personal belongings, Janette returned
to her home in Oakland, Ca. to recover from the emotional
effects of the trauma.

The journey
to recovery initially involved art, and she had exhibitions
featuring a memorial series of flower arrangements using her
skills in Ikebana, Japanese flower arranging. She documented
her experiences in a book called, "Fortunate, A Personal Diary
of 9/11."

Her recovery also involved educating herself
regarding the who, what and why's of 9/11. Upon seeing the
9/11 Commissioners present their report at a Commonwealth
Club event in San Francisco, she was convinced there was a
coverup and became active in the Northern California 9/11
Truth Alliance.

Janette has now returned to Ground Zero
apt. and continues to be active in the truth movement. She
recently organized an event in Oakland called "Question 9/ll;
A Call To Activism".

Jim Marrs

Jim Marrs is
a journalist from Ft. Worth, Texas, who has been an active

His book on the subject, Crossfire,
has been extremely popular for many years, and was used by
Oliver Stone in planning his movie JFK .
Marrs has attended numerous JFK conferences in Dallas and
is known for his friendliness and accessibility.

In early 2000, HarperCollins published
Rule by Secrecy, which traced the
hidden history that connects modern secret societies to the
Ancient Mysteries. In 2003, his book The War on
Freedom probed the conspiracies of the 9/11
attacks and their aftermath.

Dustin Mugford

Dustin Mugford,
Producer & Director of September 11th Revisited,
is a 26 year old web developer & graphic design artist by
trade. In early 2005 he decided to look back at the events
of 9/11 and discovered that the official story didn't make
sense to him.

Armed with a limited knowledge of video
editing, that he gained by creating TV shows for his company
Rocket Music, Inc. which ran on The WB, he set out to make
a film to show his family & friends the biggest question he
had about 9/11.

September 11th Revisited is perhaps the most
riveting film ever made about the destruction of the World
Trade Center. This is a powerful documentary which features
eyewitness accounts and archived news footage that was shot
on September 11, 2001 but never replayed on television. Featuring
interviews with eyewitnesses & firefighters, along with
expert analysis by Professor Steven E. Jones, Professor David
Ray Griffin, MIT Engineer Jeffrey King, and Professor James
H. Fetzer. This film provides stunning evidence that explosives
were used in the complete demolition of the WTC Twin Towers
and WTC Building 7.

Jim Oberg is a
retired engineer and writer living in Oregon who has been
participating with The World Can't Wait - Drive Out the Bush
Regime during this past year. Jim has also assisted efforts
to protect Social Security from those seeking to privatize
it, and with the election reform movement seeking to eliminate
use of voting equipment using proprietary software. He and
his wife spent 20 years outside the US as volunteers assisting
rural development efforts in small communities, mostly in
Southeast Asia.

Dr. William
F. Pepper, an international lawyer, was the attorney for James
Earl Ray, the supposed killer of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr
. He believes that Ray was a patsy for the assassination,
and that King was killed by a conspiracy that involved governmental
agencies.

Pepper, a friend of King in the last
year of his life, represented James Earl Ray, attempting to
get him the trial that he never had. Pepper then represented
the King family in a wrongful death civil trial King family
vs. Loyd Jowers and other unknown co-conspirators. During a

TvNewsLIES.org
is on of the premier Internet resources exposing the massive
deception perpetrated by the American corporate media on the
American public. By examining how media deception works TvNewsLIES.org's
editor, Jesse Richard, has established that the American corporate
media is in fact the tool used by the ruling elite to shape
public opinion.

The events of September 11th serve as the
prime example of how the controllers of the corporate media
distract the public and hide the crimes witch they commit.
Without a legitimate news media democracy can not survive.
Jesse Richard proposes that we render the ruling elite's weapons
of mass deception useless by education the public about the
techniques of media deception.

Aaron Russo

Born in Brooklyn and raised on Long Island, producer Aaron Russo began promoting rock and roll shows at local theaters while still a high school student. Aaron helped create the careers of many legendary performers, such as Led Zeppelin. Aaron was responsible for bringing them to America for the first time. He also promoted some of the 60's most successful rock acts, including The Who, Janis Joplin, The Grateful Dead and Jefferson Airplane.

Over the past years, Russo has received numerous awards for his achievements. They include a Grammy, a Tony, an Emmy for producing the best television special of the year "OL' Red Hair is Back," starring Dustin Hoffman and Bette Midler, plus many gold and platinum records. To date his films have been nominated for six Academy Awards, as well as seven Golden Globes. His films have won three Golden Globes, as well as the Image Award.

He is now writing, producing, and directing a new feature film/documentary titled "America...From Freedom To Fascism". The film is an expose of the Internal Revenue Service, and proves conclusively there is no law requiring an American citizen to pay a direct unapportioned Tax on their labor. The film is very provocative and is receiving standing ovations at its previews.

In 1996 Russo made a political video entitled "Aaron Russo's Mad as Hell", which was a hit throughout America. He was asked by the people of Nevada to run for governor and he made the decision to do so. The powers that be in Nevada scoffed at his decision to run for governor but were very surprised when he finished second with nearly thirty percent of the vote, beating the sitting lieutenant governor. In January of 2004, he declared his candidacy for the Libertarian Party's nomination for President of the Untied States. At the Convention in May, Russo won the first two ballots, but not a majority. He was defeated on the third and final ballot. He then channelled his energy into writing/directing America: From Freedom to Fascism.

As a laboratory
manager and industrial scientist, Kevin Ryan spent years testing
samples for conformance to national standards. During this
time,while managing Underwriters Laboratories (UL) water testing
division, he noticed a number of inconsistencies related to
UL's involvement in the World Trade Center investigation being
performed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology
(NIST). In November of 2004, after attempts to obtain answers
from UL's top management, he allowed his questions to be made
public and, as a result, lost his job at UL. Since that time,
Mr. Ryan has written several essays on the subject and has
also spoken out within his local community.

Mr. Ryan's participation in this conference
does not indicate his agreement, or disagreement, with the
positions or statements of any other presenter, investigator

Ralph Schoenman

Long active
in political life, Ralph Schoenman has been involved in international
resistance to imperialism and active in the workers' movement
in the United States. He was Secretary General of the International
Tribunal on U.S. War Crimes in Indochina. He spent seven months
in Bolivia in 1967 and was imprisoned there after the death
of Che Guevara. He worked with Malcolm X with respect to the
battle for the Congo and in the anti-imperialist struggles
of Eastern, Central and Southern Africa. He negotiated the
release of political prisoners in many countries. He conducted
one-on-one negotiations with over thirty heads of state and
their deputies on matters of international affairs.

Ralph Schoenman was a president of the
International Tribunal Against the Debt, Lima, Peru and assisted
in the formation of the Africa Tribunal in Johannesburg, South
Africa and Los Angeles, CA. He was Director of the Who Killed
Kennedy Committee?, formed in 1964. Its President was Bertrand
Russell and its members and sponsors included Field Marshal
Sir Claude Auchinleck, Arnold Toynbee, Professor Hugh Trevor-Roper,
Sir Compton Mackenzie, Lord Boyd Orr, Vanessa Redgrave, Caroline
Wedgwood-Benn among prominent others.

He and Mya Shone were directors of the
Committee in Defense of the Lebanese and Palestinian Peoples
during the Israeli invasion of Lebanon in 1982, of the Palestine
Campaign, which at the time of the first Intifada called for
an end to all aid to apartheid Israel and for a democratic
secular Palestine, and of Workers and Artists for "Solidarity"
(that is, Solidarnarsc, the Polish Workers' movement). They
were the North American organizers of the International Conference
Against Repression in Haiti that took place in Port-au-Prince
during the oppressive Raoul Cedras regime. He was a founder
of the Committee for Artistic and Intellectual Freedom in
Iran and spent seven months in Iran during the revolution
against the Shah. Ralph Schoenman and Mya Shone were founders
and editorial members for ten years of the labor and socialist
newspaper "The Organizer."

Ralph Schoenman's analysis and discussion
of the events of 9/11 and the invasion of Afghanistan, "World
Trade Center: Uncensored History," left WBAI's audience riveted
to their radios waiting for the next installment and led to
the broadcast of "Taking Aim with Ralph Schoenman and Mya
Shone," now in its fourth year of production.

Pat Shannan

Investigative
reporter Pat Shannan has been on top of the OKC case since
the day it happened, and the title of his new DVD presentation
says it all: "OKC Bombing -- The Forerunner to 9/11." Mr.
Shannan will outline other cases in recent history to show
that the facts and evidence never did fit the official stories,
and how a cooperative news media allows the deception to continue.

David Shayler-- CancelledPLEASE NOTE: David was scheduled
as a keynote speaker Saturday night with Annie Machon, his partner.
Because of his courageous actions as a whistleblower, David faced
insurmountable difficulties in securing a visa to travel to the
States for this conference. Fortunately, Annie is still scheduled.

David Shayler
and Annie Machon (see Annie Machon entry,
above) both spent over 5 years working for MI5,
the UK security service. During their years at the heart of
Britain 's secret state, they saw an alarming catalogue of
mistakes, cover-ups and crimes, which led to the deaths of
innocent people.

In particular, David had personal experience
of a false-flag terrorist operation. His counterparts in MI6
officially briefed him on a plot to assassinate Colonel Gaddafi
of Libya. This consisted of MI6 officers paying associates
of Bin Laden over $100,000 in an illegal operation which was
not sanctioned by the British government. The attack went
wrong and innocent people died.

In the wake of this operation David and
Annie left MI5 and blew the whistle. As a result they have
spent 3 years on the run and in hiding in Europe , seen friends,
family, and journalists arrested and persecuted, and David
has been to prison, not once, but twice. Further intelligence
has since emerged that proves the Gaddafi plot went ahead
as David described, but the British government continues to
refuse to hold an inquiry. David sees the Gaddafi plot as
one of a sequence of false-flag terrorist operations designed
to give the UK and USA the pretext to attack oil-rich Middle
Eastern countries. He will be addressing the conference on
this and other examples of the crimes of the intelligence
services.

is helping kickoff a 9/11 grassroots group in DC. He appreciates
the left and criticizes it for ignoring 911. He appreciates
the the US nonviolence movement and criticizes it for being
unnecessarily weak. His natural penchant for getting in trouble
is explained by his need to ask questions his colleagues don't
want to think about. He expects to go to jail over 9/11 this
fall.
